Are you terrified?

India's terror anniversary calendar now covers every month of the year, except it seems, the month of June.

The stories are the same. N blasts, at least X dead, at least Y injured. Foreign hand suspected, etc.

What happens to the ones that don't make the official count? Are they rounding error?

Notice the systematic undercount of dead in the p-sec vis-a-vis the non p-sec ones.

And of course all the victims in CNN-IBN's story are Muslims. I am not disputing that Muslims are victims of the tragedy. But the main target was Hindus; that is why one of the bomb blast sites was Hanumanji's temple. Next, expect Hindu terrorists to be blamed for the tragedy.

When will it stop?

Who will stop it?

How long we will be ‘mere spectators’?

How long before you or me or our near and dear ones will not be another victim of this unending spiral of terror?

How many more bomb blasts to take place, before we wake up?

How many more innocent lives to be lost, before we get angry?

Yes, get angry now before you too are ‘NOBODY’ but a mere figure in the ever increasing list of innocent victims. Refuse please, to be sacrificed at the altar of some ‘perverse’ and misplaced ’secularism’.

Very Angry,

PI.

I am furious too. The State's lackadaisical and nonchalant" attitude towards introduction n implementation of a range of appropriate and rigorous counter-terrorism measures is intolerable.

We are Humans, We are not Numbers or those numerics that feature in statistics.

They should learn a few bits from Israel, which keeps admirably high n intense government vigilance over peoples' lives.
